American designer Alexander Wang has released Griphoria, the first commercially available 3D printed stiletto, developed over six years in partnership with 3D printing company Carbon and footwear software provider HILOS .

Made almost entirely from elastomeric polyurethane using Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis technology, the heel-forward mule retails for $795 and is available now, fabricated in Italy and offered exclusively in black.

“Produced in hours, without molds or excess waste, Griphoria represents a fundamental shift in how footwear is designed and made. Enabled by Carbon’s advanced 3D printing technology, it delivers both technical performance and design precision at scale — setting a new standard for luxury footwear,” stated the company.
